Background: TIMP-1

Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases or TIMPs are a family of proteins that regulate the activation and proteolytic activity of the zinc enzymes known as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). There are four members of the family, TIMP-1, TIMP-2, TIMP-3 and TIMP-4. TIMP-1 is a glycoprotein with a molecular mass of 32‑34 kDa produced by a wide range of cell types. TIMP-1 inhibits active MMP-mediated proteolysis by forming an N-terminal, non-covalent binary complex with the MMP active site. TIMP-1 also associates C-terminally with pro-MMP-9 in a complex which may play a role in regulating activation. Independent of MMPs, TIMP-1 has been shown to have a role in tissue homeostasis.
